I performed a search, but didn't find anything on this. I just read an excite review that this was shot entirely by hand on digital to give a 'documentary feel'. Anyone heard about this? What cams were used? Sounded interesting to me.

Here is the article:

I have seen some excerpts as the movie has won some kind of price in Locarno and they look very good. A lot of camera motion.
It didn't look digital and in fact IMDB mentions Super16.

Interesting. The excerpt from the review:

[The film takes a piercing, wrenching look at what it feels like for a girl, as the Madonna song goes. It feels that much more realistic because it was shot with hand-held digital video over just 26 days, creating the raw vitality of a documentary.]

I wonder if only parts were shot digitally? Thanks for the info. It adds (creates?) to the mystery!!!

The handheld stuff reminds me of the Dogme movement, with films like "Festen" by Thomas Vinterberg.
